For several years now I have referred to them as a 'poor man's' Nosler Partition. Of the production pistol bullets there are very good.

For many and for many years the XTP has been suggested as a very good ML bullet and several years back I attempted to show the difference. I never had real good luck with Hornady bullets and elk. This picture shows a test that I used to show myself which might be the tougher bullet. Especially on elk



The Deep Curls/Gold Dots worked well for me as a sub for a Nosler Partition.
